EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the iconic Bund waterfront area in central Shanghai during the early 1910s. In the foreground, the imposing statue of Sir Robert Hart, 1st Baronet (1835-1911) stands proudly, marking the site where this British consular official once served as the second Inspector-General of China's Imperial Maritime Custom Service (IMCS) from 1863 to 1911. Sir Robert Hart, a towering figure in the history of Shanghai and China, is depicted with an air of authority and dignity. The Bund, a historic waterfront area, is seen in the background, with its impressive architecture and European influence. The area was once part of the former Shanghai International Settlement, a self-governing region along the western bank of the Huangpu River. The Bund is a testament to Shanghai's rich history and cultural diversity, with a mix of architectural styles that reflect the influence of various foreign powers, including the British, American, German, and French. In the distance, the elegant Julius Caesar Palace Hotel and the imposing German Club can be seen, adding to the vibrant and eclectic scene. Sir Robert Hart's tenure as Inspector-General of the IMCS was marked by significant achievements, including the modernization and expansion of the Chinese Maritime Customs Service, which played a crucial role in China's economic development during the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republican period. His legacy continues to be celebrated in Shanghai, where his statue stands as a reminder of the city's rich history and the important role played by foreigners in its development.
